Title: Textured, porous, expanded PTFE
Inventor: KOWLIGI RAJAGOPAL R
IPC: B29C48/00
Filed: 1994-01-12
Granted: 1998-03-05
Abstract: A more porous PTFE is obtained by impressing a pattern into extruded PTFE and then expanding the PTFE. The pattern can be impressed by knurling or, preferably, by rolling the sheet between the rollers having a pseudo-random pattern formed on the surface of the roller. The uniformity of the pores is controlled by the pattern: viz. a coarse pattern produces a wider distribution of internodal distances than a finer pattern. <IMAGE>

Title: Temperature responsive controller for cardiac pacer
Inventor: CALFEE RICHARD V
IPC: A61N1/365
Filed: 1987-05-27
Granted: 1990-04-26
Abstract: A controller for variably controlling the pacing rate of a cardiac pacer responsive to temperature which includes a logic and control unit, a parameter communication unit, an analog to digital converter and a temperature sensor. The temperature sensor in the right ventricle or atrium communicates a value related to blood temperature through the analog to digital converter to the logic and control unit. The logic and control unit operates under control of the rate algorithm to calculate a pacing rate value related to variations in the blood temperature. The pacing rate value is calculated as the sum of a reference rate, a natural rate response term, and a dynamic race response term which contributes rate only in response to physical activity. A step rate response is also added to the calculated pacing rate when predetermined criteria related to the blood temperature and calculated pacing rate indicate the onset of physical activity. Under the control of the rate algorithm, the controller also maintains the level and rate of change of the calculated pacing rate within predetermined limits, and prevents the pacing rate from remaining at the maximum rate limit after physical activity has ceased.

Title: Transformer with large energising range - has power portion loaded by an auxiliary load as long as consumer appliances are isolated
IPC: H01F29/02
Filed: 1972-02-26
Abstract: One stage of the transformer is connected for economic operation, while its power stage has a fixed transformer ration, using one shank of a three-shank iron core. A tap changer is incorporated between the input winding part of the power state and the tappings of the economic operation part.
